Baby Hammocks # 2

[Ginger]

thanks so much trish. i wish i'd known you got one in earlier! could've saved me some $$$

[~Trish~]

Aww, sorry! I only got it in last week and I haven't put it on my website yet. I don't want to until I'm 100% sure I want to sell it LOL! It seems so silly when I already have one!

When did you buy yours?

[Ginger]

oh, it's ok. i bought mine before xmas. i was watching a few on ebay, but ended up just buying one brand new from amby. can't wait to use it, i hope he loves it. ds1 has been such a bad sleeper, i'm really hoping this makes a difference with the new baby.

If it makes you feel any better, I rarely ever get second hand hammocks in and I didn't have one before Christmas! I can get them at wholesale price through Amby though, which has been handy when I need accessories! PM me if you ever need any accessories

It's money well spent, our hammock seriously was the best thing we ever bought for DS1! I hope you have as much success with it as we did

Pixie, I would say yes it probably is time to move on to the cot...Oskar was the same, started to want to roll but once he went into his cot he slept a lot better again.

Rainforest, I used it for both for about a week but then Oskar decided he didn't like it during the day...lol. I did wrap him (from under the arms as he hated having his arms in the wrap) and when it was winter he had another wrap over him like a sheet and tucked under with his arms inside that one. They have the "startle" reflex which is one of the main reasons we wrap them as they wake themselves up.

If your baby is happy to be in it for day and night then do that Otherwise your bub will let you know no doubt. Good luck!! I love the Amby...can't wait to set it up again!

ok....just tried to put my newborn in it and he hated it!
he just looked so tiny in it, it looked like it was going to swallow him!
it also seemed like his head was too low, like he was almost upside down. should i wait till he's a little older? wdyt??

did you put ds as far up to the head end as possible, thats is what my instructions says. I got mine at 8 weeks and dd loved it just transitoned her to cot this week. she will be 8 months on wednesday.

Are you wrapping him, they do look small in them but usualy like the movment. Have you tried gently bouncing him.
